Summer is the time for outdoor sports and you can protect your teeth, cheeks, gums and lips with a low-cost mouth guard. It could save you from a knocked out or chipped tooth, and it will prevent you from grinding your teeth during the big game.
No really, just dont. Weve all seen someone open a bottle with their teeth. An amazing feat? Nope, but a great way to cause micro fractures in your teeth. Using your teeth to rip open potato chip bags or to crush ice are also no nos.
The short answer is no. You most likely cannot sunburn your teeth. Shwew! Your lips on the other hand can sunburn. In fact, your lips might be the most susceptible to sunburn. Its important not to rely on regular sunscreen to protect your lips, choose a lip balm with a minimum of SPF 15. It is designed for your lips, and it will stick better. And just like with sunscreen, remember to reapply it every couple hours.
There are lots of reasons to smile all summer long. Evidence suggests that smiling reduces stress and helps your heart. So show those teeth! Brush twice a day, floss daily and smile big. You'll feel better when you do.

I am always greeted by friendly staff. My hygienist always does a great job and makes sure I am comfortable. Had a new dentist at my regular check up. Super nice and made sure I knew exactly what was going on.

My dental experience was great however I was told that the other to procedures that I was to have done was to cost me up front when I was told that all I had to do was put 20% down and the rest make payments. I have been going here for the last 7 years. I was not happy

My wife and I are seniors dependent on Social Security. We were fortunate to get into a Medicare advantage plan with some dental coverage. Midwest people were very helpful both in going through the process of getting needed work done and filing the claims for reimbursement.

Staff is friendly and efficient. The doctor is knowledgeable and jovial. All in all, it was a good experience. I can't give it five stars because, ya know, it's still the dentist office.

The staff is informative and their compassion towards their patience is incredible. It is amazing to go to a facility that put their patience first over the almighty dollar. And to have the care and kindness to help a patient to get resolution for their dental issues is amazing as well. I will recommend to everyone I know. Thank you for your service.
